In the city lord's office, Xu Nan, who had always been jealous of Xu Nan with his poisonous tongue, fell into a long silence under the novel tricky question from Senior Sister Jiang's angle.

However, the chief archmage of Anonymous City did not intend to let go of the poor ship soul little pot friend, but then threw out a few more tricky questions one after another, causing Liuhuo to fall into the dilemma of almost downtime.

In the end, Xu Nan couldn't stand it anymore, so he found an excuse to let the flow fire slip away.

Although Xu Nan was secretly refreshed when he saw the deflated appearance of the flowing fire, after all, although he was the owner of the Dengyun Ship, there seemed to be very few people in the entire Anonymous City who could make the soul of the ship deflated, except for Sister Tom, who didn't know where to go and had a mysterious origin, the rest seemed to be Jiang Yuan's late.

Regarding the small contradiction between Senior Sister Jiang and Liuhuo, Xu Nan has a little understanding, but he has always been puzzled: since Jiang Yuanchi joined the management of Anonymous City on behalf of Stephen Sand, Liuhuo's attitude towards her has been lukewarm, and she is very respectful on the surface - after all, nominally, the chief mage is the current second-in-command of Anonymous City in addition to the city lord; But Xu Nan always felt that Liuhuo's attitude towards Jiang Yuanchi was very ambiguous, and there was even a hint of hostility.

On the contrary, Qin Lele's attitude is much better for the soul of the small ship.

This is completely unscientific, okay!

Theoretically, Jiang Yuanchi is a disciple of Lady Stephen Sanan Suli, the successor of the Arcane Empire; On the contrary, Qin Lele was mixed with the guys from the Heavenly Divine Kingdom every day, copying books for Ferlandor and selling treasure chests for McCann......

Of course, this kind of abnormality Xu Nan did not delve into it, it is normal for Liuhuo to have his own ideas, as long as it does not affect the overall situation, the current Xu City Lord does not have so much thought and energy to dig out the gossip between these female creatures - as for the topic of whether the ship soul has a gender, it still needs to be studied, and naturally it is not Xu Nan's dish.

John is probably quite interested, but unfortunately, at this time, no matter how muddy Xu Nan is, he will not throw the flowing fire to the scientific research maniac for slicing.

After easing the atmosphere, Xu Nan understood the results of this sweep more clearly from Jiang Yuanchi's mouth.

Roughly, it was all in his expectation, except for the part of the Dark Regions.

"Is there really a passage to the Dark Lands here?" Xu Nan asked, pointing to an eye-catching marker on a crude map.

"I've done radiation tests." Talking about business, Senior Sister Jiang's attitude was still very correct, and she quickly handed a complete record to Xu Nan: "The radiation of the emerald mine has reached here, and it is seriously exhausted - this has nothing to do with distance, but it is rapidly decaying. This is similar to the situation near the Mage's Tower you mentioned earlier. ”

Xu Nan nodded slightly.

Near the Mage Tower in the Living Corpse Swamp, the radiation data of the Emerald Mine is also low, and that is because of the seal of the God of Seven Blood and the realm of the God of Poverty.

And if there are similar signs at this passage, it means that the divine power of the primeval gods has covered here.

This suggests that this passage is a path that leads to the relevant transit station, if not directly to the underworld of the Dark Realm.

After all, to assess whether a dungeon belongs to the true dark world, the isolation of the divine power of the primeval god is the only indicator.

After careful calculation, the location chosen by Xu Nan is really not bad, this place is not far from the passage, and the divine power of the primeval god has not been completely covered, but it can avoid the gaze of the Heavenly Divine Kingdom and other forces to a certain extent; And because he hasn't completely entered the sphere of influence of the primeval gods, he shouldn't be burned for the time being—after all, the dormant gods in the dark region have never been known for their benevolence.

"Send someone to guard the passage and keep an eye on the movement over there."

Xu Nan commanded.

Jiang Yuanchi nodded: "I have already used your inflatable puppet to fill the intersection of that passage, and no disturbance can escape our surveillance." ”

Xu Nan was very satisfied, although this sound strange, but Senior Sister Jiang really did her job well.

The two discussed the current situation in Anonymous City one after another and reached a certain degree of consensus.

In essence, Senior Sister Jiang's sweep this time was to relieve Xu Nan of some worries, and also set the tone for the future cooperation between the two.

She is from Stephen Sand and represents Stephen Sand's will and interests to a certain extent; Xu Nan is from Paradise Lost, and he also wants to maintain Paradise Lost; Of course, if conditions permit, Xu Nan will definitely collude with Jiang Yuanchi, wouldn't it be nice for the two to conspire together to dig up the corners of both sides......

It's a pity that the two major forces are not vegetarians, and Xu Nan may be able to find loopholes in the matter of the emerald mine, but when it comes to the development of the anonymous city, there is no room for ambiguity.

This burgeoning underground city means much, much more: Stephen Sand's temptation, Paradise Lost's attempt, the collaboration between the two sides...... And something much more far-reaching.

In order to deal with the affairs of Anonymous City more properly, Xu Nan and Jiang Yuanchi, no matter how good their personal relationship is, they still have to be clearly distributed.

Now, the tone is basically set.

Xu Nan is inside, and Jiang Yuanchi is outside. To be reasonable, Xu Nan is not very good at government affairs or anything, but Warlock Ron seems to have a unique talent in this regard, and it has only been a few days, Xu Nan has become handy in how to gather the wool of the Ice Plains; Moreover, there is indeed a gap in the strength of the two.

Jiang Yuanchi came out of Stephen Sand's retreat this time, and his strength skyrocketed so much that people couldn't understand it, and Xu Nan was envious, so he could only hand over this aspect of affairs to Senior Sister Jiang.

The results of this sweep did not disappoint Xu Nan.

In addition to a few nests routinely reported by Flowing Fire, in fact, Jiang Yuanchi eliminated more monsters, most of the monsters were worthless, and could only cause chaos to the Anonymous City.

A few that are not convenient to deal with for the time being, she also marked them one by one, preparing to settle accounts after the autumn.

For example, the young black dragon.

According to Jiang Yuanchi's report, near the northern cave twenty kilometers away from Anonymous City, there is a fairly prosperous ecological group, and at the top of the ecological group is a young black dragon.

This young black dragon does not seem to have been out of his juvenile life for too long, judging by the scales, he is in a period of rapid development at the moment, and it will not take him a few decades to enter his full state.

This black dragon controls some tribes of lizardmen and kobolds, and then some gray dwarves, but there are not many of them.

The threat of the young black dragon is acceptable, considering that the other party's current situation should be more inclined to dormancy and development, the threat index to the anonymous city will naturally be greatly reduced.

Judging from the current combat power of Anonymous City, it is almost impossible to win this ecological group at a relatively small cost.

So Jiang Yuan didn't startle the snake for a long time.

Of course, the caster is not a good option for dragon slaying in the first place for a black dragon that is naturally immune to all magic.

In addition to the black dragon, there is also a lair of suspected ferocious cavemen, as well as a tribe of dinosaurs.

These three locations, all marked as dangerous, are the problem options that Xu Nan needs to solve in the future.

In a short period of time, Xu Nan still chose to wait and see and monitor, after all, Anonymous City had just selected some of the Ice Plains people to form a city master guard, although he was already looking for a suitable instructor, but before this group of people was formally trained, it was difficult for Anonymous City to accept a small-scale battle in which non-professionals participated.

What Anonymous City can rely on is actually Jiang Yuanchi's magic, for many small cities that have just begun to develop, a powerful spellcaster is almost the most perfect starting guarantee, not to mention the potential help of Stephen Sand behind Jiang Yuanchi.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a way to get more power from Stephen Sand."

"There are also alchemists, the people of the ice field can naturally be competent for assembly line operations after training, but the real alchemy products still need smart alchemists......"

Xu Nan made a decision silently in his heart.

……

The security matters around Anonymous City were temporarily put on hold, and Senior Sister Jiang chose to return to Stephen Sand, supposedly to recover her life.

Xu Nan came to the rat tribe for a visit.

Ever since the last time he had spoken a polite word to Zura, he had been grinding around the mines, passing by the Nezumi tribe several times, and he wouldn't go in the face of the wooden crow's repeated hints......

The reasons are naturally many, the most important of which is for the appetite of the rat people.

At this point, he felt that the time was ripe, so he paid a surprise visit—he had already figured out the routine of the nezumi anyway, and in this place where there was no day or night, as long as Zula did not sleep, it was not presumptuous.

In the Nezumi village, in a nondescript tent.

A big-eyed nezumi girl carefully poured tea for Xu Nan, then bowed and retreated.

Not far away, there was a rumbling sound, and even from such a distance, the sound of mining trucks refining the gold ore collected by the workers could still be heard.

Zula sat quietly on the simple stone bed, looking at Xu Nan intently.

"Lord of the City, you're finally here."

Unlike the vicissitudes of life after the sound of magic, Zula's own voice seemed very young, but unfortunately most of the rat people were old-looking, plus a large beard, it really made people unable to tell his age.

"I've been waiting for a long time."

Xu Nan smiled and didn't say anything.

It is not difficult to see from the curious attitude of the nezumi in the village that the Itka nezumi have a very uneasy and slightly surprised attitude towards these alien humans.

And the staff in front of his own well of delusion probably impressed Zula.

In Xu Nan's calculations, Zula had long wanted to talk to him.

"You must have something to say to me."

I have to say that Xu Nan's pretending to be advanced has improved now, and at this moment, he feels that his tone and tone are pronounced...... Even the posture of holding the teacup is so confusing and unfathomable.

Sure enough, Zula looked at him deeply and replied:

"Indeed, I have a very important thing to give you feedback."

Xu Nan smiled slightly.

"The mines opened up by your city-state, working day and night, have seriously affected the sleep quality of our Itka rats!"

Zula righteously accused.

The smile on Xu Nan's face gradually faded.

It seems that this is not the same as the script in my heart......
